Operation of the machine
The wood chipper is equipped with two hydraulic rollers, pressure-compensated flow valve,
control valve and operating guard on the feed funnel (See Figure 6). The feed funnel can be tilted.
The operating guard must be in the stop position (0) during start-up (See Figure 7). After start-up,
pull the operating guard to the central position (A) and the rollers will turn. The material will now
be drawn into the machine.
Drawing the operating guard all the way towards you (B) will reverse the oil flow in the control
valve, reverse the rollers, and the material will now run out of the machine.

By adjusting the adjusting screw on the flow valve, you can determine the correct rotation speed.
Never run the rollers too fast, as the wood, together with too much pressure on the rotor, will act
as a brake, resulting in increased fuel consumption. Branches can wind around the rollers if the
rotation speed of the rollers is too fast.
The table below (Table 1) shows the recommended rotation speeds of the feed rollers for the
required chip length. The speed varies with the rotation speed of the PTO shaft. The chip length
can be regulated using the wood chipper’s flow regulation valve for chip lengths smaller than
specified in the table.
